I saw someone on here with an all black Texas license plate with a white star and lettering, is it the new plate or does it cost extra? It will look good on my black camaro compared to most license plates

You can get the black plates with random numbers for a much lower price (60). but if you want to pick what is on the plate, more money. During certain times of the year (2-3 weeks at a time) you can get up to 7 letters/numbers of your choice. The 7 letter plates are $395 yearly, my 6 letter is $195 plus around 70 for registrations yearly.

I just got the black plate with big star in left and random letter/number. $195 for five years, on top of the regular annual registration costs. Those things are very, very spendy if you go one year at a time.
